LONDON

Hotels and Apartments

One Aldwych – Very close to the theatres. Great location, extremely comfortable, great indoor pool

Trafalgar Hotel – it’s hip and trendy and very close to Trafalgar Square. Part of the Hilton Resorts

London Perfect – The Byrne sisters have a wonderful selection of apartments in London, Paris and Italy

London Connections is an apartment rental agency run by a father and son team from Utah. Great apartments all over the city and really wonderful and responsible people. All apartment rental rentals should be this easy.

One Fine Stay has some really beautiful properties in London and New York, Paris, Rome and Los Angeles

Andaz (formerly the Great Eastern Hotel). We stayed here in 2001 after the re-opening. The east end was fun but everything closed down at 5pm; hard to find a restaurant. But the hotel is very comfortable. Now a Hyatt Hotel

Open Table.com – yes, this favorite restaurant website is also in London

L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon – This is one of the finest eateries in the world and usually really expensive. That being said, this L’Atelier serves a very reasonable lunch for a very good Prix Fixe. Wine pairing is extra

Pub Food – We love coming to London for a good meal of Shepherd’s Pie, Bangers and Mash, Cottage Pie, Steak and Ale Pie and a good pint

WILTSHIRE

Hotels and Apartments

The Bishopstrow House is a grand English Country Manor. Very comfortable, good Full Board packages and a stylish hair salon if you need a haircut. We chose this place because of it’s proximity to Stonehenge.

Welcome to Rome on Rome!

We do the Romans a disservice if we heroize them, as much as if we demonise them. But we do ourselves a disservice if we fail to take them seriously – and if we close our long and complicated conversation with them.
